The Richest Heir CHAPTER 90
Sophia cast a quick glance at her phone, releasing a hushed curse under her breath. If it weren't for Charlie, she might have expressed her unfiltered thoughts about her mother and stepfather."Is everything alright?" Caleb asked gently, noticing the frustration on her face.She sighed as she stared back."Everything okay?" Caleb asked, noting the frustration on her face.Sophia forced a smile. "Yeah, everything's fine."Caleb observed her closely, sensing something was amiss. "So, are you here to buy a new house?" he inquired, his smile lingering.Sophia sighed and nodded. "Yes, actually my mom and her husband are looking for a new house. His office recently moved, and they want a place closer to his workplace.""Got it," Caleb replied, but a thoughtful expression lingered on his face.After a few moments of silence, Sophia finally spoke up. "Caleb, what brings you here? Did you get a part-time job?" she inquired, scanning him from head to toe.Knowing Caleb's modest background and h
The Richest Heir CHAPTER 91
Observing Caleb from head to toe, one of the women leaned towards her colleague and whispered, "Miss Roberts mentioned she was bringing in a filthy rich client today to buy a villa... could that be him?"The other woman, engrossed in the spectacle Miss Roberts was creating, bit the top of her pen and shook her head. "I highly doubt it. He doesn't give off a wealthy vibe. I mean, just look at his clothes. Does he seem like a man who can afford even the keychain to those villas? He looks more like a college student.""Hmmmm....." the first woman replied, looking at him from head to toe."But why is Miss Roberts acting like he's some sort of Prince Charming... she's practically drooling over him.""I don't know," the second saleswoman replied."He must be somebody important; otherwise, Miss Roberts wouldn't give him the time of day based on his clothes. Her attitude suggests he's definitely someone of importance."The hushed whispers continued, and the two saleswomen near where Miss Robe
The Richest Heir CHAPTER 92
Miss Mathews was taken aback. She hadn't expected Miss Roberts to introduce a man who appeared financially poor, making her doubt his capacity to afford a villa. If not for Miss Roberts' unusual behavior, she wouldn't have considered him a potential buyer for a moment."Mr. King, I've found the staff member who assisted your friend. Feel free to inquire about anything you need." Miss Roberts said in a very respectable way.Caleb shifted his gaze toward the woman standing before them and rose from the sofa.With the best smile she could muster, Miss Mathews approached Caleb, looking him over with subtle curiosity."My colleague mentioned that you wanted to see me?" she inquired, her eyes lingering on him.Caleb responded with gratitude, "Yes, thank you for taking the time to come and see me. Actually, a little while ago, you assisted a friend of mine, Sophia. She was wearing a white dress, beautiful long blonde hair, blue eyes," he said in a dreamy tone. Miss Roberts bit her lip, tryin
The Richest Heir CHAPTER 93
As Miss Mathews meticulously prepared the contract, her thoughts drifted to the typical clients she dealt with. They would usually select a villa, pay an initial deposit, and then complete the full payment after a few days. However, in Caleb's case, she observed a stark difference. He displayed no interest in paying any deposit, and it appeared he intended to settle the entire amount in one go.This realization prompted Miss Mathews to issue assertive directives to her staff, ensuring the contract's accuracy and smooth processing. She aimed to eliminate any room for complaints from Caleb, recognizing the significance of this unique opportunity.Everything had to be done Professionally and perfectly.The shift in attitude toward Caleb was evident among the other salesgirls. They eagerly offered him tea and biscuits, attempting casual conversations in the hope of capturing his attention.Despite their attempts, each girl received a stern glare from Miss Roberts, a clear signal for them
The Richest Heir CHAPTER 94
Miss Mathews' behavior towards Caleb had taken a drastic turn. The respect she showered on him half an hour ago had transformed into suspicion. Her gaze shifted to Miss Roberts, who seemed to be watching Caleb with pity in her eyes. In that moment, Miss Mathews questioned if Caleb was perhaps an actor hired by Miss Roberts to play a prank on her.She couldn't shake the suspicion that it might all be an act. Maybe he didn't even know Miss Sophia. Everything seemed dubious, especially considering Miss Roberts was the one who had called her away from the office to meet this supposedly wealthy client, eager to buy a house on the spot, all because of some girl he may or may not have known.She was definitely being pranked by Miss Roberts.Had it not been for Miss Roberts' remarks, she wouldn't have entertained the idea that the man before her could afford a house worth 1.75 million dollars. Her narrowed eyes were aimed at Miss Roberts, ready to voice her skepticism."Why assume I wasn't
The Richest Heir CHAPTER 95
Miss Mathews couldn't conceal the smirk that appeared on her lips as she nodded."Alright then, I'll let you both go, for now," she agreed readily.She believed that if Miss Roberts had committed to resigning, Caleb's ability to purchase the villa the next morning must hold significance. If proven true, it presented an opportunity for Miss Mathews to earn a considerable commission solely from that villa.On the other hand, if this was merely an act and Caleb couldn't afford the villa, she could effortlessly remove her rival from the company without any effort on her part. The prospect left her feeling quite content.Regardless of whether Caleb showed up at the office the next morning or not, it wouldn't result in any losses for Miss Mathews personally. Both seemed to be a win-win situation, and she was inclined to allow them to proceed as they pleased."Let's go, Mr. King," Miss Roberts muttered under her breath.Caleb nodded slightly and began to move away from Miss Mathews."Caleb?
The Richest Heir CHAPTER 96
"Are you absolutely certain about this, Cassie?" she asked, her voice sharp with authority.Cassie's frustration was palpable as she reiterated the truth of her words. "Yes, Amy, it's all true. Why would I fabricate such a story? If you doubt me, go to Castle College yourself and inquire about Caleb. You'll find out everything you need to know."Miss Mathews's expression turned frosty as she absorbed Cassie's words, her gaze flickering between Caleb and Miss Roberts. Anger and betrayal simmered in her eyes as her hands clenched tightly at her sides.Miss Mathews's eyes bore into Miss Roberts with a combination of anger and disappointment. The sales department staff looked on, eager to witness the unfolding drama."You don't need to wait until tomorrow," Miss Mathews declared, her voice cutting through the tension in the air. "It's painfully clear that the man you brought in is nothing more than a pauper. He can't even afford a flower pot, let alone the villa he claimed he'd buy. Trash

"Understood, Mr. King. Unfortunately, I'm currently on a business trip. However, I'll contact the bank manager and have him deliver a blank cheque to you right away. You can fill in the amount as needed. Could you please provide me with the details?""Of course, Mr. Nat. I'll text you the details now," Caleb assured before disconnecting and promptly sending the necessary information to Mr. Nat.The reply arrived swiftly:"I'll dispatch a representative from the bank, with the blank cheque to your location immediately."Caleb smirked as he read the message, then casually returned his mobile to his pocket. While he could have retrieved his bank card by going home, he didn't want to waste any more time disproving Cassie and her sister's accusations. Calling Mr. Nat to arrange for the immediate cheque, was his way of swiftly countering their claims and demonstrating that he was not a fraud.Caleb considered that if he had left to retrieve his card, there was a high likelihood that one or
